2013 VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG Recalls Canada & USA

2013 VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2013 Volkswagen Touareg has two recalls, the more serious being a brake pedal that can dislodge while driving, leaving the driver unable to slow or stop the vehicle. A securing clip may be missing from the brake pedal pivot pin, allowing the pin to shift and the pedal to separate from its mount entirely. The second recall affects Touareg Hybrid models only: the high-voltage battery tray can retain water instead of draining it properly, and that pooled water can cause an electrical short in the battery that raises the risk of a fire.
